I like to think this is a sequel to 'New York, New York' as 'Love is Hell' was the intended follow-up to 'Gold'. The dual meaning still applies. She's a city, she's a girl, and knowing her is still a struggle every day.
The imagery is ... simply beautiful. I know how the city looks under a fresh blanket of snow, it covers up all the ugliness. For me, snow is also a metaphor in music as a return to innocence. I'm not sure if it fits this particular song, but I can't shake it, just like you can't shake the girl with an outer layer of beauty and purity...
